Accessible via the Internet at http://osufacts.okstate.edu, and search by P-1028. Data Sources: Unless otherwise noted, the commodity data contained in this report came from USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service, as accessed via the Quick Stats 1.0 web interface (http://www.nass.usda.gov/Data_and_Statistics/Quick_Stats_1.0/index.asp). The data mapped reflects the number of acres planted for crops, or the number of animals for livestock, reported in the 2007 Census of Agriculture. Notable exceptions include estimations of district level hog inventories, due to nondisclosure of data, and forestry, which is not reported by NASS. Forestry map data represents total tree count for 2008 reported in the Forestry Inventory Data Online, which is provided by the US Forest Service (http://fiatools.fs.fed.us/fido/index.html). Additional forestry data provided by American Forest and Paper Association’s “Forest & Paper Industry At A Glance: Oklahoma” brochure. All mapped data are from the 2007 Census of Agriculture, unless otherwise noted. Other data is from USDA NASS Surveys, ERS or the USDA Forest Service.
